Why won't Skype recognize my webcam?

I'm using a MacBook Pro, with a Mac OX S Version 10.6.3 opperating system. Skype won't recognize my built in iSight. I have made sure I have the newest version. I recently had to reinstall my software after replacing a faulty HD ribbon. Please advise...

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

Use Software Update to update your OS to last version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8. Install all the other updates that goes along w/it. After the installation(s) repair permissions and then restart your computer.

If after doing the above suggestions Skype still does not work, try the suggestions in KB Article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 How to Troubleshoot iSight


Any problems you are having w/Skype should be dealt w/them. Go to their troubleshooting website and/or their forums for help. It's the place where the Mac Skype users hang out!
